SUMMARY:Arianna String Quartet: Kreutzer Sonata
DESCRIPTION:Beethoven’s famous composition the “Kreutzer Sonata” figures prominently in a story by Leo Tolstoy. The Czech composer Leos Janacek later wrote a String Quartet based on Tolstoy’s novella. The interplay between these creative geniuses has created a fascinating artistic conversation that goes from music to literature and back again\, exploring concepts of love\, jealousy\, murder\, and remorse. For this discussion and performance\, the Arianna String Quartet will be joined by Washington University Russian Literature specialist Nicole Svobodny to delve more deeply into Tolstoy’s work\, and then to see how Janacek’s vivid retelling actually expresses different aspects of the same drama\, painting a more complex picture of the characters’ relationships.

SUMMARY:The Art and Science of Archaeology and Performance
DESCRIPTION:How are classical musicians like archaeologists? From the scant dots and lines left to us by composers hundreds of years ago\, performers use both knowledge and imagination to construct a compelling emotional world. What is the magic language that connects composers from the past with us today? In music\, as in archaeology\, the study of relics from the past reveals important connections with times long ago\, and can tell us a lot about who we are and what we can create in the present. \n\n\nThe Arianna Quartet welcomes special guest UMSL Professor of Archaeology Dr. Andrew Balkansky for a fascinating evening that will deepen your understanding of both classical music and archaeology! \n\n\n
